RILEM Spring Convention
18 – 19 March 2019
The Convention combines RILEM standing committee meetings (Bureau, TAC, DAC, Development Meeting), and importantly a number of RILEM technical committee meetings. One purpose of the Spring Convention is to afford RILEM TCs the opportunity to meet at least annually for their scientific discussions, and to do this in conjunction with other TCs and RILEM colleagues with whom mutual interchange might be possible. Also, a prestigious lecture and award (the Colonnetti Lecture) will be held during the Convention (there is a possibility of two medals thus two lectures). As always, besides high quality technical content, there should be major opportunities for networking and public relations activities.
Following meetings are envisaged during RILEM Spring Convention 2019
- BUR: Bureau
- DEV: Development meeting
- DAC: Management Advisory Committee
- TAC: Technical Activities Committee
- TC: Technical Committee
